New Rochelle is nowhere you want to pull over to if you’re low on gas on your way to New York City but Iona may be a good place to pull your “Upset Special”. Steve Burtt is a player and one of many contributing Seniors who went to the tournament just last year. Plus how can you not root for Jeff Ruland? He could kill all of us with his bare hands.
